In North Simcoe practically all the corn was badly frozen. Potato tops were frozen off, as well as most garden and vegetable crops. The result will be a light yield of potatoes. Buckwheat also suffered' considerable damage. Wellington County potatoes were., likewise dam- aged by frost. In Norfolk County nearly half of the unharvested .to- bacco was ruined and the yield will be only 50 per cent of the 1985 harvest, Fall Wheat generally appears tobe in excellent shape. Improvement of pastures resulting from heavy rains during September has greatly benef- ited livestock. Some bloating on green alfalfa is reported. From Middlesex conies the report that quite a large number of farmers have gone to • Western Canada to purchase feeders under various plans of government assistance. Oxford notes a consider- able increase in milk yield in Sept- ember. Silo filling is progressing rapidly in most districts. Welland and Wentworth did not suffer much from. the frost. With the tomato and canning corn harvest on, factories are working to capacity in Prince Edward County.. Temiskaming district reports oats running around 45 bushels per acre, barley 30 and wheat 25 bushels. From twenty to thirty trucks of fruit and vegetables are coming into that district over the highway daily. "Voice of Youth" at the Royal Winter Fair The "Voice of Youth in a double sense, will be heard at the Royal Winter Fair next month when youth- fu1 orators, chosen best in the nine provinces' will compete in a contest recalling some of the features of the' ancient Greek schools, the Roman' forum, the medieval Troubadors and today's contests of the Welsh Bards.J' ' Local competitions are now being conducted in all provinces with the aid of Department of Agriculture ,te senectnon of provincial speak -1 ers. Finals are to consist of -ten- minute minute addresses by the young ora -I tors delivered in public at the Royal Fair, The judges, who are prominent elocutionists, will stake their.adjusi- tation on oratorical merit, 30 points to be awarded for quality and suitab- ility of the subject and contents of .f the speech, and 70 points for the manner and effectiveness of delivery. This department in the scope of the Royal has been arranged under the general plan of dedicating this year's Fair to "Youth in 'Agricultural," It was felt that the Royal could add something like a new service to the "higher.` education" in agricultural Which has been a feature of its aim for the past 15 years, and is motiv- ated by the desire that the vital re- lationship of "Youth iii Agriculture" Should be realized by the Canadian public, it; other words, that the claims and aspirations of youth should be set forthby the "voice of youth" itself. The Royal's plan is being co-ordin- ated with admirable work being done permanently by the Canadian Council on Boys' and Girls' Club Work. Mining or Cropping the Woodiot classes that are necessary to yield a standard cord of fuelwood. This table gives the following figures: 2 ,inches 170 trees 5 inches 35 trees 10 -inches 6 trees 15 inches 2.5 trees 20 inches ... . ,1.2 trees 24 inches ,7 trees. A tree .will grow from 5 to 10 in - elks in diameter in a• much shorter period than it takes one to grow from a seedling to a tree 5 inches in diam- eter . • If it required the "same nuns- ber of years, it means according to the table that a tree puts on 6 times the volume of wood growth when growing from 5-10 inches as it does from a seedling- to a tree 5 inches in diameter. It is a much better financial pro- position to have an income from a property every year for periods of 10- 20 years rather than every 30-50 year as is the case when the woods is cut clean. Another vital reason why woods should not be cut clean is that the land is liable to be cleared and people are realizing more every year that too much land is already cleared. The farmer often pastures a clean cut wood in order to secure revenue from the land. The stock browse the trees. If the hulais sandy, shallow, swamp or is on a hillside it will be found in the swamp, waste or barrenclassif- ication rather than the valuable woodland classification. A much better method of selling woodland is to follow a selective system. This may be a minimum diameter limit or the trees that are to be removed may be marked by blaz- ing or daubing them with paint. This is much to be preferred to a mini- mum diameter limit as there are many trees under the diameter limit that should be cut and others above that should be left, as they are healthy and at the stage when they are putting on the maximum and also more val- uable wood growth.

Certainly, after the war, with its stu- pendous losses of treasure a•td wealth and of human lives, there be- gan a new era, Men began to think more freely and broadly, and there was a loss of reverence for old ideas and of old habits. Particularly , a- mong young people has' there been a vast discontent with old ways of thinking. Young people have. had dif- ficulty in finding employment, and this has upset them. Many young people `want to work, yet cannot find work.

A Scout's Paradise' For English Boys English Boy Scouts may now enjoy real woodcraft camping and wild ani - al observation . and tracking on a 40 -acre, heavily wooded area on Lake Windermere. The area, (Great ower Plantation) which was official - y. opened as a National Woodcraft amp by Lord Baden-Powell, was the ift of Mr. W. B. Wakefield, a lover f' the outdoors, and one of the pion- er `supporters of Scouting in Eng- and. 2 T 1 very short-sighted policy as over a period of years a far larger growth e of wood and therefore higher finan- e Bial returns would be secured if a 1 system of selective cutting were followed. The cutting of all trees on an area was proper in pioneer' days when it was the intention to clear the land for agricultural crops and pasture, but it is economically wrong if it is the intention to keep an area in pro, t duetive woodland. , There are several' other • reasons Y ,why owners continue to sell wood- land in this way. It gives substan- fi tial financial returns and it is the ti easiest method,to•sell a woods.'Priees c per acre vary from $25.00 to 2200,00 t per acre, depending on the size of the b trees, the species, the density of the strand and the available supplies of fuelwood in the district. Farmers who do.not own a woodlot approve of this 'method, as they do all the - work during the,winter when other Work is not pressing. Owners should consider carefully before they sell woodland as they re- duce the income from a wood consid- erably by allowing the small trees to be cut. Trees 1-5 inches in diameter hove a comparatively small value for. fuelwood, but they have a high po- tential value, as they are many Years old and have' reached the size when they are putting on appreciable wood growth.
